I don't fit into any of the CF relationship statuses at the moment, so I'm hoping I can get some answers here.
I have a female friend who is my best friend and we are not officially in a romantic relationship but we are close.
Anyway the day before Christmas eve I feel God say to me to lay down the relationship at the foot of the cross. 4 times He spoke to me about death and resurrection. So I do, and feel I was to go quiet and not respond to her emails (there is a reason for this).
So I do go quiet. On Christmas eve she emails me and says:
"Something wrong?"
I don't reply because I want to obey God and trust Him with what He is doing.
So the next day I'm struggling in not responding and a promise I had made to her to not disappear on her and to hold her hand as she's walking through some stuff in her life. I say to God He's going to have to do it another way and that I can't break my promise to her.
Later on Christmas day I reply to her:
"Everything's fine, God was just doing some stuff in me."
She replies:
"I don't think everything was fine."
Our conversation over the next week is all back to normal and seemingly going well.
Today she tried pushing me away and saying we're just friends. I challenged her over that knowing it not to be the truth. She responds:
"I knew there had been some snow and was worried you had got into a wreck."
Given her response of "I don't think everything was fine." and her giving me the silent treatment for a while on that, I know in my heart it wasn't about the snow.
Why would she deny her love for me when I can see it through the non verbal communication, as well as the things she both says and does, and the things she omits? I know she loves me, but why is she denying both to herself and me that she loves me?
